For years, we have sought to ground in the pages of Scripture all of the rich resources emerging from the Reformation, so that the recovery of those resources wouldn't be called into question as a sort of idiosyncratic advancement of a particular theological agenda. We believe the Reformation recovered the central themes of Scripture that […]
For well over twenty years now, Christian leaders have been lamenting the loss of general biblical literacy in America. No doubt you have read some of the same dire statistics that I have. Study after study demonstrates how nearly everyone in our land owns a Bible (more than one, in fact) but few ever take […]
I can barely open my eyes this morning as I stumble out of my car into the pre-dawn mist and try to get my bearing. The wonderful aroma of freshly brewed coffee hits my senses and my body turns as if on autopilot. I reach for the door, tripping over the threshold as I step […]
The world seems to be screaming the same question Pilate posed to Christ in the Gospel of John: "What is truth?" And naturally, people seem to be looking for the answer to that question in all the wrong places. When confronted with the content of the Bible and its authority as the answer to the […]
Almost every sector of business across the globe has been adversely affected by the current economic recession. But according to a recent article in BusinessWeek, one type of business is still flourishing: outsourcing. Companies looking to reduce costs often hire other companies–usually in a more cost-effective part of the world–to manage or to execute a […]
Once upon a time, but not so long ago, people had to smuggle Bibles and Christian literature into Eastern Europe and what was then the Soviet Union; border guards would ask travelers if they possessed any “guns, drugs, pornography, or Bibles”; and entire villages shared one copy of Holy Scripture, carefully tearing out pages and […]
Preaching is too intellectual. It aims at the mind but doesn't really transform the whole person. Besides, we live in a culture that disdains authorities who tell us what to believe and what to do. It gives the pretense of someone having all the answers. What we need are more conversations. The truth emerges in […]

A member of many scientific societies, he has received honorary degrees from Loyola University and the Universities of Notre Dame, Geneva, […]
Bruce McCormack is the Charles Hodge Professor of Systematic Theology at Princeton Theological Seminary. In recent years, he has contributed to the world of evangelical scholarship and is a familiar name and much sought-after speaker on the Christian college and seminary conference circuit. This new collection of essays, most of which were previously published as […]
Few documents are as important to the history, theology, piety, and practice of the Reformed churches across the globe as the Heidelberg Catechism (1563). Although there are many volumes offering an explanation of the catechism, most are pedestrian and obvious. Most fail to place the catechism in its historical context as they try to interpret […]
I first heard the battle cries of the emerging church several years ago when I attended a conference for Christian publishers; although a publisher myself, I didn't fully comprehend this at the time. A coworker and I sat in on a session led by two thirty-something publishing professionals: a woman who was a writer and […]
This review column is subtitled, "Books Your Neighbors Are Reading," but I'm thinking it might need to be called–at least in this case–"Books Your Neighbors Should Be Reading." I doubt most people race to their newspaper on the day the Pulitzer Prizes are announced (and that goes for the Nobel Prizes as well–who do you […]
